The Baltimore Ravens cut nine players from their active roster on Sunday afternoon.

Billy Cundiff, the team's place kicker last season who missed a key field goal in the AFC Championship, didn't make the first round of cuts.

“Billy had a great camp, the best he has had with us. He showed, like he always has, a toughness and an ability to come back and be a top-flight NFL kicker. These decisions are never easy, and this one was difficult for all of us – Ozzie [Newsome], Jerry [Rosburg] and me. Of course, that says something about Justin [Tucker], the way he has kicked and our belief in him. But, that does not say something less about Billy. Billy was ready in every way to be our kicker. He’ll kick in the NFL. He’s a very good kicker and an even better person,” John Harbaugh said in a release.
